Fan Kuan
- A Chinese landscape painter from Song Dynasty (960-1279)
- Known for his landscape painting.
- He was initially inspired and followed the style of Li Chen, who is also a Chinese
landscape painter, but later realized that he had to take nature as his teacher instead of
other artists and their works.
- He went to mountains and isolated himself to study the effects of atmospheric, weather,
and seasonal changes on the scenery.
